Poor
Renuv's Poor rating is due to a lack of published sustainability efforts or information. It’s a smaller brand, which means it likely has fewer resources for robust sustainability efforts and reporting. When Renuv publishes more data, we’ll be able to do a more thorough review.
Renuv doesn't make any commitments related to its ingredients. Choice of ingredients is a strong determinant of environmental impact, and Commons found evidence of climate-threatening ingredients in its products, including petrochemical-based ingredients. It uses plastic-film packaging of a virgin or undisclosed source, which contributes greatly to waste production and excess energy use.
